The Extended Phenotype

Richard Dawkins is a prominent British biologist and the author of the meme theory. His brilliant books have played a huge role in reviving interest in popular science literature. The clarity of presentation, humor, and iron logic make even Dawkins'... strictly scientific works accessible to a wide audience. "The Extended Phenotype" develops the ideas from his famous book "The Selfish Gene" (1976), where evolution and natural selection are viewed "from the gene's perspective." These ideas, which sparked heated debates, have already firmly entered scientific discourse, and "The Extended Phenotype" is rightly considered one of the most important books in contemporary evolutionary biology.
